We we had metrics associated with makings here We have diverse and women own businesses part of our construction process so 20% of our construction is Use of our local products we have a lot of our headquarters here And so we wanted to make sure we're incorporating that in the facility as well our Our local contractors, you know making sure we're using materials kind of locally And then we have annually over two million dollars worth of contracts for supplies and services They'll continue and grow in the new facility And then I think that as the mayor kind of enhancements that we've provided to Taylor and union is part of that as well as The they'll be support as part of the part of that arrangement so they'll take place when we're when we're In the in the facility Yeah, I think we've had guidance from the From Todd and mayor around, you know, how do we make sure we're involving the neighbors along the way? so We are going to be holding a neighborhood community forum a little hard to do with COVID But in April we'll have several zoom meetings with the neighbors will be sending postcards out to the residents Near the new facility to give them an update answer any questions that they have around lighting You know traffic and those kind of items similar to if any of you were involved in the blue harbor event that we had It'll be similar to that, you know just using zoom and so We'll make sure you have that On your calendar we're hoping to finalize that all the person Mitchell and Decker with Kind of your your your neighborhoods included in that We will do a major community forum. I think we want to make sure we're providing information and any questions there I think we're hopeful with COVID that that could be at the end of the year. We want to do that in person so we're have some way in which we're providing You know information and then On an annual basis. We have a commitment with the city to make sure we have neighborhood five neighborhoods around Our shabuagan memorial and so We Website up where we are getting, you know kind of sporadic emails with questions So we're making sure we're answering that but our commitment is an annual forum as we go I think that before I kind of get into the redevelopment agreement. I think what's changed in the facility From what our original So we were able to make some design changes to the facility. We're gonna we've doubled the number of negative pressure rooms so That'll really help us prepare well in the future if we had another pandemic We've also added some Med search beds in the design So I think helps us with search planning in the future and some of the things that we learned through COVID We've Really have a a strong backbone Of our computer systems That really will allow us to have telehealth And them send them somewhere else where we can get a neurologist on for you know, telestrokers subspecialists That instead of driving here that's able to get on in picture On the telehealth So I think that's really greatly expanded We we have further engagement kind of technology with our patients So people will be able to Skype with their relative in Boston when they're getting One of our distribution of supplies And how we're managing that to kind of support the nursing staff So I think some good changes as a result of the learning with COVID and you know Hopefully will kind of position us for the next Next hundred years With with some of those changes Just uh, you know, I think um, I think you've probably all seen this But I think just to kind of reiterate the Our commitment around the redevelopment Agreement this is a agreement between the city and aurora written agreement associated with how we will transition that property so In burt's been Talking about that within the neighbors, so we've employed a consulting group that kind of helped us With those discussions Grave We have committed to in essence Which we're anticipating is you know You know, we want to kind of make sure that we're You know, we're work with the city and the neighborhood Over these next, you know several years To redevelop in essence work with a developer that would Redevelop the property based on That you know Our work with the city You know writes in essence to make sure that that sale happens to appropriate developer and then And then I think we're You know, I think You know can transition And then just the last slide I think we've you know, really had a lot of great community support around Our foundation we have a five million dollar campaign. We're nearly complete with that And what this does is it really enhances the services that we're delivering. So we've actually Expanded the number of nick you beds We're in our high school And you know Sport coaches to injury prevention We will be expanding our technology availability so more mobile Technology available that you know to help us position ourselves in the forward in the future and then You know, we'd really like to make sure that we have For that neighborhood so that You know, we really are part of the plan for You know how that ties with bookworm gardens and so we're you know, those are the things that our our commitment is as well around the Additional campaign.
